Luckily it was all pre-planned , in order to remove a load of construction equipment from the roof of a nearly completed office block, Queen Street in central London.
Ainscough crane getting himself set up, my truck in foreground.
Jibbing over the building to sling up.
Engineers getting it ready for moving.
Here it comes, one lift hoist.
There is not alot of room for manouvre here, 6 storeys high, between 2 buildings.
Bringing the hoist down into the street ready to go onto truck.
Loaded and secured, ready to go. just short of 11 ft wide.
That crane driver is very good! just so you can see here is the gap between the buildings!
